Anthropomorphic Characterization Created by Kathryn Reilly

Defining Anthropomorphic Anthropomorphic may sound intimidating, but it is an easy word once broken down. – Anthro- refers to human – -morph refers to form Therefore, anthropomorphic means to acquire human form. Anthropomorphic characters are non-human characters given human characteristics. A writer may anthropomorphize animals, plants, objects or ideas.

Familiar Anthropomorphic Characters These films offer many anthropomorphic characters including a beast that speaks, wears clothes and falls in love, talking household wares and talking toys that have grand adventures. And-The-Beast-(1991)-picture- MOV_6b336879_b.jpg main/98/MPW-49351

Anthropomorphizing Characters A writer anthropomorphizes characters by giving them human characteristics such as: – Speech – Emotions – Uniquely human actions Brushing teeth Playing sports Going on quests or adventures – Form Walking upright Hello Friend!

Anthropomorphism’s Purpose Writers use this literary technique to create characters that reflect human society in order to critique it. For example, in Beauty and the Beast, the anthropomorphized beast allows the writer to explore the themes of stereotyping and prejudice.

Examples of Anthropomorphic Characters in Literature In Lewis Carroll’s classic adventure tale, he anthropomorphizes many characters. In her adventures, Alice meets a talking rabbit with a pocket watch, and a Cheshire cat who loves riddles, among many other characters _super.jpg

Examples of Anthropomorphic Characters in Literature Author Richard Adams anthropomorphizes animals in his beloved classic tale to examine the ideas of friendship, bravery, freedom and governance. Each rabbit has a unique personality and represents a specific human type jpg

Examples of Anthropomorphic Characters in Literature In Terry Pratchett’s ongoing Discworld fantasy series, Death exists as a key anthropomorphized character. Death always appears in black robes and often converses with other characters. Death adopts many human actions such as building a house and riding a horse.
